Re: GNUstep additional Unix libs

[Dennis Leeuw]

So I guess you build GNUstep first, which results in a catch22, I can't build
GNUstep due to an old libxml...
Could you show me the output of your  
$GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/Libraries/ix86/linux-gnu

And do you know where xmllint and xml-config are placed, is that in Tools?
And what about the man-pages... e.g. xmllint.1 and the html documentation like
xml.html?

If you could help me out with this info that would be great.

Thanks,

Dennis
